Abstract
Advertisements are constantly losing their appeal as people question their credibility. Advertising agencies are pushing the boundaries to increase their ad reach, but they seem to forget about this. This chapter focuses on the factors that might be the reason for the failure of the current advertisement industry in Bangladesh. This chapter is based on secondary research and field surveys. Secondary research was done based on several renowned research papers, journals, newspaper articles, and so forth. The field survey was conducted specifically focusing on the advertisement experts, executives of 300 advertising agencies in Bangladesh. Almost all of the respondents agree that ads are transforming rapidly. They also agree with the fact that these ads are becoming really interesting to watch. At the same time, respondents think that ads are somehow negatively affecting the cultural and social issues of Bangladesh. They have also marked down some ethical issues of the current advertising trend of Bangladesh.
